I was too busy day dreaming in my blog...

www.bareadventures.wordpress.com

I completely forgot to mention that I've been 99% raw since the day after my last blog post mess. Despite having plenty of cooked food temptations, I've got more than enough experience to know that fruit carbs are best.

A week left until banana island with Dr Doug Graham!

Target in sight, will power as strong as ever, I'll… Continue

This was not part of the plan....

But then again when does anything ever go to plan? www.bareadventures.wordpress.com

I've been in America for a whole month already! Can you believe it? I'm still amazed at how much I've seen and experienced!

Each day I find out more and more about myself just from listening to other people talk about themselves! It really is wonderfully inspiring!

The best part is, I am finally living how I want to! Exactly… Continue

Now this is living!

From my blog www.bareadventures.wordpress.com

Today couldn't be more perfect. Yesterday couldn't have been more perfect. I'm excited for tomorrow, I know it will be perfect.

This festival awakens all my senses. Everything is so clear again. I feel like I'm finally able to let go and just enjoy life. Close my eyes and smile. I haven't stopped smiling. Tears of happiness now, no more pain.

Bike riding… Continue

My challenge - 22nd July 2012

My challenge - To eat fruit and live my truth :)

This is from 19 July at about 3pm...

........

I'm finally starting to see the full impact my eating and drinking habits have on my mood. I know at the start of the week I was so super cranky because I piled a banana smoothie on top of deep fried chips (yep... moment of WTF/who cares/I'm hungry) from the night before and it was digestive hell. Last night after a day of bananas I had four cups of chickpeas. Ok, better… Continue

My challenge - 12th July 2012

My challenge - to eat fruit and live my truth.

I haven't been doing so well on my challenge lately. It's really hard to eat fruit with a mouth full of ulcers (thanks to many unripe oranges - I was warned!) and even smoothies are tricky so I'm living mostly on mashed potato/sweet potato. As far as living my truth... well... truthfully...

I'm so completely exhausted, fed up with how this whole planet revolves around money.

I can't wait until I can be like Chris… Continue

My challenge - 2nd July 2012

My challenge - to eat fruit and live my truth.

If I'm constantly trying to be a better version of myself, doesn't that mean that really I don't accept how I am right now?

In the words of Hugh Prather, "The problem will be solved when I realize that happiness is a present attitude and not a future condition."

I eat a fruit diet because I LOVE fruit! Figs, mangoes, persimmons, durian cherries, mulberries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, watermelon,… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 62?

1 July 2012

Might be the end of my raw challenge.

Yesterday I discovered that the majority, if not all, of the oranges I've foraged are unripe, even though they look perfectly ripe. After a meal my lips were cracking and tongue a little sensitive.

I'm very bummed about that, mostly because I let my banana and date supply run out because I was going to do orange island for the next month.

Now that's off the cards, I've been to the shops and got some… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 57

Day 57 - June 27th

Tomorrow I will make time for myself.

Today is already been and gone. I could force myself to stay up, but my heavy eyes are half closed while I type this so it seems only right that I go to sleep very soon.

I am going to let myself sleep in till 6 am tomorrow and not get cranky about anything. It's going to be cold, but I have a heater. It might be raining but I have a roof over my head. I will have to ride but I am getting stronger and… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 52

Day 52(?) – June 21st

Had another great sleep last night. Waking to my alarm and the freezing cold air is still hard and getting out of bed is getting harder and harder but only 6 more days of freezing cold mornings to deal with!

Once I got into the nice warm cafe and got going for the day, I was back into the swing of it. My energy was great and the busy morning flew by. We made a beautiful low fat vegan roast pumpkin soup today as well as a very SAD Tuna…

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 50

Day 50 - June 19th

Feeling much better today, getting back on track. Slept really well and woke up 5 minutes before my alarm :D

Had a bit of trouble digesting breakfast but once I got through that I was fine. Would've easily hit 2500 cals today. Will keep working on this until I'm back up past 3000. Water intake still needs work.

Did lots of walking and focusing on rejuvenating my energy. Have got to stop letting stupid little things drain me of my energy. I… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 49

Day 49 - June 18th

I've let myself get so low. I'm not sure why, maybe I'm testing myself. Testing my limits. Maybe I'm wondering how far I will let myself go before I snap out of it and realize what damage I'm doing to my body. The last few days, possibly weeks, I've eaten barely 1500* calories a day. My sleep has been all over the place. Drinking barely any water, which is obviously making eating hard. No exercise besides my commute to work and back. I've basically fallen… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 46

Day 46 - June 15th

I was looking forward to hanging out with Kirt tonight, but it seems tomorrow night might be better. Probably a good thing, coz now that I'm home I'm exhausted! It's been a big week and I've had lots of late nights.

Still, I had a great day! Very busy at the cafe and even though I woke up so tired, I was able to turn my mood around extremely successfully. I had great energy all day. Just stretching and focusing on my breathing for a few minutes revived… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 44

Day 44 - June 13th

I feel very anxious, I need to get to sleep early tonight, but also very anxious around my new company. I didn't mean to push Sara away, I've just gotten used to my own company and being able to switch off from outside sources. Now i'm faced with someone who wants to talk and cook and eat together and i'm like.... ummmm..... *retreats to bedroom*

I was never much of an introvert but now that i'm finally accepting my true self, I feel I need solace every… Continue

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 43

Day 43 - June 12th

Each day I am more aware than the previous day and see more of my true self appearing to me.

I see each emotion I feel as an opportunity to learn and grow and "dance the dance" as a friend and I were discussing. Even though i am as emotional as ever, I seem to have almost complete control over them instead of them controlling me. I ride the emotional wave, feel it and let it speak to me. Each smile being more significant and…

Raw-for-WFF Challenge - Day 42

Day 42 - June 11th

Tonight is my last night alone in this house. Tomorrow a new chapter starts when Sara moves in. I wonder how the story will change? I do like adventure so it will be fun no matter how it goes.

I will endeavour to be a good example of this liefstyle, show her how great healthy living is. Show myself how great healthy living is. And in turn show the world how great healthy living is. Maybe just maybe, one more person will decide to eat more…

Raw-for-Woodstock Challenge - Day 41

Day 41 - June 10th

A week long break from 30bad and I really miss you guys! I certainly need to do more catch up reading but I'm glad I forced myself to have a break from coming on here every five minutes, lol!

I put the brakes on detailing every bit of my life and just relaxed and went with the flow.

I've stayed raw (I did have some frozen peas and corn, so 100% raw is questionable, but 99% is likely) almost completely overt free. I've been upping my greens… Continue
